Here I attached the updated database-catalog-security with more tests
including system views,
information schema views and documentation.

To handle the above problem, we can add a check to verify whether the
corresponding
catalog relation has the row level security is enabled or not? in all
*_aclmask or similar
functions. Based on the ACL result, if the row security is enabled,
through an error as
"object does not exist", instead of permission denied by the
aclcheck_error function.
This will increase the extra processing time for queries irrespective
of whether the
multi-tenancy is enabled or not?
comments?
